What is the new method for TYPO3 pi_getFFvalue

Question

im refactoring a decent sized TYPO3 project and have to refactor the part with the methods

$eIds = $this->pi_getFFvalue($this->cObj->data['pi_flexform'], 'selected_contacts', 'sDEF');

what is the new approach for extbase to fetch values from a flexform? having a really hard time finding the correct solution.

help is much appreciated

Answer 1

Rename the XML-Tags to settings.name inside your flexforms and use:

$this->settings['name']
